Mystery birds on night garden

Tony,
The work here is exceptional, but I have to disagree with the call on
Long-tailed Finch. Watched the episode tonight on ABC2 and they had a closeup
of the blue tittifers. I am actually not certain they do have wattles, but the
shape is not right (particularly of the beak) for estrilid finches and they
don't have a long tail! I think you are on the right track with the colour
inversion, so I will have to keep an eye out for species with black (as well as
white) bibs.
I was surprised at the amount of responses to this request, but I am not
certain yet whether I actually have an answer.
Cheers,
Peter
